I am new to Aliso Viejo Dental and I have to say I am glad I chose them as my new dentist in the area. Dr. Preda and the staff are great! I had been seeing a different dentist for decades in Huntington Beach, who was wonderful, but I wanted to finally get someone closer. After a lot of reviews I chose Dr Preda and I know I picked the right Dentist. They do things a little different than my previous dentist, they are more thorough and detailed! I started with a cleaning, which was great. They use AI in their xray / scan reviews which also helps identify cavities. The digital photos of the mouth help show the patient where the issues are, as I had two chipped crowns that are probably 20+ years old, one of which allowed a cavity to develop. I've had more than one crown replaced in the past, so I'm experienced with it. I have to say the procedure was one of the least painful I have had. The temporary crown felt like a normal tooth with no issues even after having the filling done under the crown surface. The permanent crown was installed yesterday and everything felt normal almost immediately. They do great work and while I never look forward to dental work, I know I am in the hands of dedicated and respectful people. Thank you!!! I just received my second crown replacement and as the first it went well. The temporary felt fine almost immediately & the permanent was perfect!
I don't love going to the dentist, who does? I don't mind it though when going to AV Dental! Dr. Preda and team do a great job, are friendly and thorough, and always make it hurt just a little bit less! They go above and beyond for their patients, my daughter who broke her 2 front teeth, Dr. Preda was there to help her and made her smile beautiful again! I recommend this office to anyone who needs a dentist.
So glad to find a great dentist! Very thorough and professional with all the technology impressive to see. Dr. Preda is wonderful very caring, respectful and knowledgeable, understanding not everything that needs to be done can be done right away but advised wisely what needs to come first.
Hi my name is mike and I decided to avoid going to the dentist when Covid hit, well I paid the price with too much tooth decay, the team at AV dental made the process back to a stabilized mouth very easy. Dr Preda is a pure professional with knowledge and expertise that goes way way beyond the standard dentist. (she has the hands of an angel) I wish she could be my GP!!! Stephanie is Dr Preda's wing women, she is gentle, kind, and very knowledgeable, and even massaged my shoulders when the needle needed to be used. (LOL) Dallas, Alexis, and Shelby are all pure professionals made deep teeth cleaning a breeze. Carla is the temp crown expert, and is a perfectionist. The office girls were quick to get appointments that worked with my schedule and gabe the office manager can make you laugh even when your gums dont feel the greatest.
I’ve always dreaded the dentist. Pain, anxiety, avoidance—you name it. For years, I let that fear get the best of me and did real damage to my teeth by staying away altogether. That all changed when I found Aliso Viejo Dental. I’ve been coming here for five years now, and the care I’ve received has been nothing short of life-changing. They’ve helped me replace all of my old metal fillings, guided me through Invisalign to straighten my teeth, and—most importantly—shown such compassion and patience that I’ve been able to commit to regular checkups. That alone is a huge milestone for someone like me. Their team doesn’t just treat teeth—they treat people. Every visit feels personal, never rushed, and always focused on making me feel comfortable and understood. My teeth and mouth are healthier now than they’ve been in years, and I genuinely owe that to the kindness and professionalism of everyone at Aliso Viejo Dental. If you’re afraid of going to the dentist, this is the place that will change your mind. It did for me.
